i was fresh out of school and working in denver，i was driving to my parents home in missouri for christmas. i stopped at a gas station about 50 miles from oklahoma city，where i was planning to stop and visit a friend. while i was standing in line at the cash register(收款台)，i said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.i took off，but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. i stopped and wondered what i should do. a car pulled up behind me. it was the couple who i had spoken to at the gas station. they said they would take me to my friends. we chatted on the way into the city，and when i get out of the car，the husband gave me his business card.i wrote him and his wife a thankyou note for helping me. soon afterward，i received a christmas present from them. their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.years later，i drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. in late afternoon i returned to my car and found that id left the lights on all day，and the battery(电池) was dead. then i noticed that the friendly ford dealershipa shop selling carswas right next door. i walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom.“just how friendly is friendly ford？”i asked and explained my trouble. they quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. they would accept no payment. so when i got home，i wrote them a note to say thanks. i received a letter back from one of the salesmen. “no one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you，and it meant a lot，”he said. “ thank you”two powerful words. theyre easy to say and mean so much.48the author planned to stop at oklahoma city_.ato visit a friendbto see his parentscto pay or the cash registerdto have more gas for his car49the words “took off” underlined in paragraph 2 mean “_”aturned off bmoved off cput up dset up50what happened when the author found smoke coming out of his car?ahe had it pulled back to the gas station.bthe couple sent him a business card.cthe couple offered to help him.dhe called his friend for help.51the battery of the authors car was dead because_.asomething went wrong with the lightsbthe meeting lasted a whole dayche forgot to turn off the lightsdhe drove too long a distance52by telling his own experiences，the author tries to show_.ahow to write a thankyou letterbhow to deal with car problemscthe kindheartedness of older peopledthe importance of expressing thanksb篇what will man be like in the futurein 5,000 or even 50,000 years from now？we can only make guesses，of course，but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today，for man is slowly changing all the time.let us take an obvious example. man，even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. now，on average，men are about three inches taller. five hundred years is relatively a short period of time，so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller. again，in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. even so，we still make use of only about 20% of the brains capacity. as time goes on，however，we shall have to use our brains more and more，and eventually we shall need larger ones！this is likely to bring about a physical change to the head，in particular，the forehead will grow larger.nowadays our eyes are in constant use. in fact，we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. but over a very long period of time it is likely that mans eyes will grow stronger.on the other hand，we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. these，as a result，are likely to grow weaker. at the same time，however，our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.but what about hair？this will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. in the future，then，both sexes are likely to be bald.perhaps all these give the impression that in the future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at！this may well be true. all the same，in spite of all these changes，future man will still have a lot in common with us. he will still be a human being，with thoughts and emotions similar to our own.53the passage mainly tells us that _.amans life will be different in the futurebfuture man will look quite different from uscman is growing taller and uglier as time passesdmans organs functions will be on the wane54what serves as the evidence that man is changing?aman has got stronger eyes now than he ever had.bmans hair is getting thinner and thinner.cmans arms and legs have become lighter and weaker.dman has been growing taller over the past 500 years.55which of the following is true about a human being in the future?ahe is hairless because hair is no longer useful.bhe has smaller eyes and wears better glasses.chis fingers grow weaker because he doesnt have to make use of them.dhe thinks and feels in different ways.56.we can know from the passage that _.ahuman beings will become less attractive in the futurebless use of a bodily organ may lead to its degenerationchuman beings hope for a change in the future lifedfuture life is always predictable c篇 public transport- in new york theres a good bus and subway service. if you are planning to use the subway a lot, you should buy a subway ticket for ten journeys because its cheaper. but you dont have to use public transport- there are lots of places you can go to on foot, like the empire state building, 5th avenue and central park. the new york taxis are a part of the city experience, so you should take at least one taxi during your visit!hotels-there are lots of good hotels in new york. the best is the plaza on 5th venue but you dont have to pay a lot to stay in the city; there are lots of smaller hotels and the ymca near central park is great for young people.eating out- there are many kinds of food in new york and you shouldnt eat at mcdonalds every day. there are restaurants in little italy and chinatown, for example.shopping- shopping in new york is fun. there are big shops on 5th avenue. they are open seven days a week. but be careful when you look at the prices; you have to pay a special 8% tax on everything you buy in new york.places to see- finally, there are a lot of places to see in new york such as times square and the statue of liberty. and you shouldnt go home without climbing the statue of liberty to enjoy the scenery of the city.57. what would be the best title for the text?a. traveling in new york. b.

homeb. the statue of liberty is the only place to enjoy the scenery of the cityc. when you visit new york, you should climb the statue of libertyd. only by way of statue of liberty can you go homed篇every kid wishes to be an adult. do you remember playing houses as a child pretending to be a grownup like your parents？did you imagine you were a doctor，a soldier or a teacher？at that time，anything seemed more exciting than young.but now as grownups，some adults find they cannot leave childhood behind. they become “kidults”(kidadult)being a kidult has become a lifestyle choice among young people across asia. some kidults collect toys they once played with. hello kitty，garfield，and snoopy have many adult fans around the world. it is not unusual to see a 20something woman with a big，garfieldshaped cushion on her sofa or a hello kitty mobile phone accessory(饰物)other kidults still enjoy childrens stories and fairy tales. for example，even an edition of the harry potter novels with an adult cover came out in britain. that way，no one else on the subway will know that an adult is actually reading a childrens book!“kidults can be like vitamins to society. adults who value their childhood and hold on to pure，childlike emotion may be needed in such a rough and dry society，”said a professor in a korean university. he added that kidult culture might fill the generation gap between adults and kids. it could give children and their parents books，movies，and cartoon shows to enjoy together. “so，they look for an escape from increasingly complex and stressful life that are hard to deal with，”greenhalgh said.61we can learn from the passage that kidults are_.achildren who cant wait to grow upbgrownups who hold on to childlike emotioncpeople who enjoy playing sportsdyoung people who pretended to be grownups when young62in the opinion of the professor in a korean university，kidults are_.aimmature (不成熟) and weakbnecessary to our societyclooked down upondgetting more and
